I went to a friend's 50th BD party last night and some heavy hitters came out. A mag of 95 VT was opened -- WOW! If you have any, start drinking them. It's peaked. A mag of 2004 Pegau was opened -- double WOW! If you don't have any, get a few bottles. It is worth the tariff.

We had to dress as pirates (to my chagrin). I had a little pointy hat, ear ring, eye patch and a stuffed parrot for the shoulder. Luckily, I know of no photographic evidence of same.
